The idea is a blog and maybe a sample of my cartooning, hosted somewhere that won't break the bank. After messing around with blogging through the various free hosting services online (blogger, wordpress.com, livejournal, journalspace), I want my own domain name and a teensy bit of hosting space to mess around with a cheese toast blog. However, given the breadth of the internet and the competing advertising for 'cheap hosting!!' VS the dunning reviews cursing out all the big name companies in this business, I find myself adrift.<br> <br> So Mefi, what's a good host for a novice? I want something cheap, n00b friendly and good with blogs, who'll help me secure a domain name (the one I want is available at the moment, no worries there) and won't crash every other day/eat my data monthly. Oh yeah, I'm Canadian, if that matters. tag:ask.metafilter.com,2008:site.91855 Mon, 19 May 2008 18:06:24 -0800 bloghost internet webhost Phalene
